Bubble trouble: aortic air embolization and de-embolization during coronary angiography
09 Aug 2021
Air embolism (AE) is a rare complication during interventional procedures and one of the most scaring for interventional cardiologists. Air bubbles in the coronary circulation often result in ischemic symptoms, vasospasm, and even cardiac arrest. In addition, arrhythmias are common and closely related to the coronary ...
